I don’t seem to have any pictures from this past month, even though we had some exciting and fun times.
Late
in May, my daughter and granddaughter, Amelia and Faye, visited from Kentucky
for a week. We got to spend some time with them, including on Memorial
Day, and it was so good to see them for a while.
On
Memorial Day, we did our usual gathering at my daughter, Hannah’s house, where
her husband, Kevin, made some wonderful barbecue, and we all provided lots of
yummy side dishes. The weather had been pretty bad, but that day it was
perfect—sunny and in the 60s, so not too hot, but a beautiful day.
Last
Saturday, my granddaughters, Alma and Ansa (Hannah and Kevin’s girls), had
their dance recitals. They were obviously the best dancers in their
classes, and I thoroughly enjoyed watching them. We were afraid that
Ansa’s recital in the morning was going to be cancelled because it was held at
our local high school auditorium, and a nearby maintenance building caught fire
about an hour or two before it was supposed to start! Fortunately, our
great firefighters got it under control, and everything went off without a
hitch, other than having to go a long way to get into the school campus to
avoid the burning building.
Of course, this past Sunday was Fathers’ Day, and a lot of local families met at Five Guys Burgers for lunch with me or later at a local ice cream stand for dessert with me. It was a great day, and our church had another photo area like they did for Mothers’ Day, so I got a picture with my three daughters who go to our church with us, just like Krista did last month.
That’s
it for this past month, but tomorrow we’re looking forward to a visit with my
Wirth relatives. My uncle Erle and cousins Kevin, Wayne, and Wes, and
Kevin’s wife, Janet, are in our area, and we’re going to meet them for lunch
tomorrow. Hopefully, I’ll have some pictures from that to share next
month.
